Hiei, Miki, Kuwabara and Yusuke were treading up a hill in the Makai, looking for the castle, Kuwabara occasionally complaining that he was bored or tired, and receiving a scoff from Hiei. Soon enough Hiei and Kuwabara were sensing Kurama's familiar aura. They looked up and saw a big ol' house, it was made of blood-red bricks and it had a spiraling staircase leading up to the balcony. The roof had black shingles and the windows were spotless.

"Someone's a neat-freak," Yusuke muttered.

"Come on," Hiei walked up to the house and opened the door, which creaked on slightly rusted shingles. They entered and a blue mist filled the room. They all covered their mouths and coughed.

When the mist cleared a door was in the clearing. Yusuke opened the door, and there was an escalator, an elevator, a pair of steps, and a ditch.

"Where the hell did they get this!" Yusuke yelled.

"All these lead to the same room but those here must take different ways," Miki read a sign. "I wonder why?"

"I say Kuwabara takes the ditch," Yusuke volunteered.

"Why do I get the ditch?" Kuwabara protested.

"Because there are satisfy-needing bashers out there who want you to break your ass when you fall," Yusuke said with a smile.

"I say Hiei gets the ditch!"

"Hn," Hiei said angrily.

"You two do rock-paper-scissors. If Kuwabara wins two out of three he gets to choose who gets the ditch. If Yusuke wins though, Kuwabara gets the ditch," Miki suggested.

"Fair enough," Kuwabara agreed. 'My sixth sense'll help me! I rock at this game!' Kuwabara thought.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Yusuke had paper.

Kuwabara had rock.

"What!" Kuwabara yelled.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Yusuke had paper.

Kuwabara had paper.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Yusuke had scissors.

Kuwabara had paper.

"Kuwabara goes the ditch then!" Yusuke said triumphantly.

"B-But my sixth sense said you'd...I..."

"I just shifted my thoughts the instant before we showed our choice!" Yusuke grinned. "You lose!" he made an 'L' with his right forefinger and thumb.

Kuwabara cursed and stood at the edge of the ditch. Hiei and Miki had discreetly made their arrangements and stood at the foot of their choices: Hiei at the stairs, Miki at the elevator.

Yusuke stood at the foot of the escalator. "Everyone ready?"

"Yeah," Miki replied.

"Hn."

"Ready."

"Go!" they took a cool stance, they walked patiently up their sources. Except Kuwabara, who took a leap of faith and crashed into the wall before coming off and beginning his gravitational descent.

Everyone was bored now, except for Kuwabara who was yelling.

About 5 minutes later they all reached the top. Kuwabara wasn't there yet.

"Kuwabara's not here yet," Yusuke pointed out. There was a bunch of pillows in the fourth slot. There was a faint yell, then came Kuwabara who landed on the pillows.

"Damn," Hiei cursed.

"Wait a second," Yusuke said, "If he fell down and we went up, how did he get here?"

"There's no logic in fanfiction anymore," Hiei replied. Yusuke blinked.

"Right then..."

"He's right," said a female voice. Opened the door to reveal...

A very tall lady with long blue hair and a black kimono.

"Where're those two kids?" asked Miki.

"Oh, they were my daughters. They're not here, and they won't be for the rest of the chapter."

"Oh."

"Now where's the kitsune?" Hiei asked, unsheathing his sword.

"What are you, a yaoitzer? (Not mine!)" The lady asked.

"..." Hiei twitched at the thought.

"Yeah. So come at once, and you can go home knowing your friend's going to be tortured."

"Hells no!" Yusuke yelled. "SPIRIT GUN!"

The Spirit Gun bounced right off the lady.

"What the crap?" Yusuke yelled.

"I'm awesome like that. Here, because I'm so nice I'll take you to see your friend. Follow me." she opened the door to reveal a large hell-like room, complete with brimstone, dark, red dirt walkway, and even flames. Everyone's mouths gaped in shock at the biggest sight: Four giant rocks jutted from a pedestal-like...thing at the top of a flight of stairs. There were chains on each jutting rock, and at the end of each chain was a wrist or an ankle. These wrists and ankles belonged to the one and only Kurama. Worse, he had cuts all over his body, and a thin trail of blood was coming out the corner of his mouth. His back was arched due to the chains, and his eyes were closed. He was wearing nothing but his pants. (Drools Hm? Oh, sorry peoples! ;;)

"Whoa," Miki said, almost impressed. "What did you do to him?"

"I tortured him, baka," the lady said. "And because I can, I'm going to bring the shrimp's dog." She snapped her fingers, and there was Baka! She jumped on Hiei and started licking Hiei, Hiei spurting curses.

"And now you dieeeeeeeeeeee…" the lady droned.

Group sweatdrop.

OMG! Cliffie! Like I said, this is the semi-final chapter. Hopefully. And I may make a sequel! Hope you liked it!
